sidewalk paint {a tutorial}

Need a fast, fun and easy craft for the kids this weekend?

With a little cornstarch, cold water, and some food coloring, you can create entertainment to last all afternoon-seriously, this stuff was so much fun!

Step 1: Mix 2 cups cold water and 2 cups cornstarch in a bowl (one with a spout works best if you have it). Step 2: Portion mixture into muffin tins, add 1-2 drops food coloring, and stir.

And your little artists (or inner artist in you, if you prefer) are ready to create!

One note of caution-I’d heard that other’s have had the food coloring stain their deck/porch…we washed ours off immediately after playing, and had no issues. Just be forewarned:)

Have a great weekend!!

Great recipe but you MUST wash it away shortly after painting-it stains!
